Centerview vs JPM SA (London)

Hypothetically, let's say you had a SA offer from JPM and Centerview in London. Which would you choose and why? What are the pros & cons of each?

Obviously Centerview will have better pay, but are exit ops significantly weaker?

is there a source for this? Vaguely remember seeing 60k base for CVP at some point.

 

Exits don't matter at the intern stage. It doesn't matter if you're interning at Mizuho or if you're interning at Goldman Sachs, at this stage you should just be focussing on getting experience. No one... actually cares where you are, either? Caught up with an old friend and explained I did an Investment Banking internship at a BB and she had no idea what that meant, nor that the bank was anything special. Just go wherever you get an offer, where you'll get the broadest, most fulfilling internship experience. Usually, it's at the bigger banks. I would pick JP Morgan because they probably have better HR events for the Summer, a better training programme, and better exposure. Not to mention that JP Morgan & Chase is a commercial bank/balance sheet bank, you'd probably be in a better place to return than being at a purely advisory shop.
